Mayday, Mayday, Mayday, or was it just an urgency rather than distress? The dive centre was ringing with the sound of digital distress alarms from the radio simulators as 5 students went through their VHF GMDSS Radio courses on 20 June. None of that "10/4 big daddy, got a smokey bear on ma' tail" thank you very much Ian, but plenty of fun, especially when the routine messages starting asking for passage information on a naturist boat! (you had to be there to understand fully!) Well done to all the students. The course is a requirement if you want to operate a marine radio on a boat, so if you need a qualification, give the centre a call.
